{"product_id":"weather","title":"Weather","description":"The second edition of this concise, affordable textbook is ideal for curious undergraduate majors and non-majors taking a first course in meteorology. The first two chapters introduce readers to the main concepts and tools used to analyze weather patterns. Chapters 3-8 provide a foundational understanding of the fundamental processes taking place in the atmosphere, and in Chapters 9-12 these physical concepts are applied to specific weather phenomena. Weather concepts are then used in Chapters 13-15 to explain weather forecasting, air pollution, and the impact of climate change on weather. Key concepts are illustrated through a running case study of a single mid-latitude cyclone, providing students with an opportunity to progressively develop their understanding of weather phenomena with a familiar example approached from multiple perspectives. This edition includes expanded and updated coverage of precipitation types and formation, satellite and radar technology, tornadoes, and more. It also features thought-provoking end-of-chapter review questions, new visual analysis exercises, an expanded test bank and nearly 100 new figures.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1108965598\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: GBV.1108965598.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Hakim, Gregory J.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Book has corner edge dings and or scratches and signs of light wear.  \u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Good Books Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55507507740977,"sku":"GBV.1108965598.G","price":51.73,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0914\/3730\/2065\/files\/1108965598-0.jpg?v=1785438755","url":"https:\/\/goodbookscompany.org\/products\/weather","provider":"Good Books Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
